Grandir UK expands into Ascot with Puddleduck Preschool and Day Nursery

We are excited to announce the acquisition of Puddleduck Preschool and Day Nursery in Ascot, providing full day care across two buildings – The Priory and St Martins.

Established in 2016, the settings were Founded by Laura Woodcock and Kristin Wright, offering 67 high-quality places to the local community. Located close to each other, younger children begin at Puddleduck Day Nursery at St Martin’s and move a few steps over to Puddleduck Preschool at The Priory from aged two years and upwards. ​Puddleduck Preschool and Day Nursery is set within 40 acres of beautiful woodland where children take part in forest school activities.

Lydia Hopper, CEO of Grandir UK comments, “Kristen and Laura have successfully crafted a stellar reputation providing childcare solutions to families in the local area since 2016. They have confidently left the nurseries in Grandir UK’s capable hands to continue to provide high-quality childcare where children will enjoy an enriched and unique range of education programmes. The nursery teams will reap the rewards of being part of a larger group with benefits such as a dedicated resource to professional development and access to the savings and rewards & recognition employee platform, GrandCentral.
